Painted Rocks on the Fairyslipper Forest Trail

People have been hiding beautiful painted rocks on the Fairyslipper Forest Nature Reserve Trail. As lovely as they are, they don't belong in the nature reserve which has a leave-no-trace policy.

While enjoying the trail and the plants and animals in the nature reserve, please tread lightly and leave only footprints.

We've gathered the painted rocks from the trail and they will be in a bucket near the trail kiosk in the parking area on North Cove Rd until the end of April for the creators to collect and take home.

Thank you for your understanding.

Thetis Island School - Succulents Wanted

We are planning on making a succulent garden on the school grounds of Thetis Island Elementary School in an area that is overgrown with blackberries. We are asking for donations of succulents for the school from community members. You can drop off donations of succulents at the school, next week on the 26th, 27th and 28th. You can leave them on the desk outside the school. If you don't have any right away that is fine we can add them to the garden later. 

Thank you so much for your donations.

Question re Best Cell Phone Reception and Smart Hubs on Thetis West Side?

I’m about to sign up for a new mobile phone plan and  new phone and wondering re best provider .  I have reasonably good but not perfect cellular reception with TELUS  at my place and a good rate plan. I’m west side waterfront on Cunningham/ foster point road ,very near the ferry terminal.  In the past TELUS  network seemed the best option for island coverage but rogers I think may now have  5 G  in the area, i think TELUS does not.     Anyone on the west side near me know if rogers or TELUS does have 5 G?  And how solid is their signal ?    My current phone does not have 5 g capacity so i don’t know.

Also does anyone with good cell signals  have much experience with the cellular hubs ?   I am blessed with wired TELUS 15  internet that is pretty stable  due to my location .  But curious if I should look at the other options?
